A93914	Horometria: or The compleat diallist. Wherein the whole mystery of the art of dialling is plainly taught three several wayes; two of which are performed geometrically by rule and compass onely: and the third instrumentally, by a quadrant fitted for that purpose. With the working of such propositions of the sphere, as are most usefull in astronomy and navigation ... By Thomas Stirrup, philomath. Whereunto is added an appendix, shewing how the parallels of declination; the Jewish, Babylonish, & Italian houres; the azimuths, almicanters, &c. may be easily inscribed on any dial whatsoever, by rule and compasse onely. And to draw a diall on the seeling of a room, by W. Leybourn. Also, Dialling Vniversal, performed by an easie and most speedy way, ... by certain scales set on a small portable ruler, by G.S. practitioner in the mathematicks.	Stirrup, Thomas.; Leybourn, William, 1626-1716. Appendix, shewing how the parallels of declination; the Jewish, Babylonish, & Italian hours; the asimuths, almicanters &c. may be easily inscribed on any dial whatsoever.; Serle, George. Dialling universal.	1658 (1658)	Wing S5689; Thomason E956_2; ESTC R207639	89,665	174

from L to M. Then take 577 the natural Tangent of 30 deg and place it from L to N. Then take the whole line and set it from L to P. Lastly take 732 parts and set them from P to Q so shall the points M N P Q be the points through which the hours of 1 2 3 and 4 must passe and the same work being done on the other side of the Meridian you shall find points through which the hours of 11 10 9 and 8 shall passe the hours of 5 in the morning and 7 at night will seldome fall upon the plane except they be supplyed from East and West windows Now because the center of the Dial is without the Room so that you cannot make use of that to draw the hours by you must therefore place one foot of your compasses in the point L M N P and Q with the other draw obscure arches of Circles as ***** and out of the last column of the former Table take the complement of every hours arch from the Meridian and place them upon the respective hour arches from the Equinoctial to the points ***** as you see in the figure Lastly if you draw the lines * M * N * P * Q they shall be the true hours upon the seeling In the inscription of the Azimuths in declining reclining planes and in drawing the circles of altitude in all kind of planes I confesse I should have been somewhat larger in giving you an example in each plane as I did with the other varieties before but pre-supposing the ingenious practitioner sufficiently to understand the precedent he cannot but with small pains overcome the rest but I should not have been so briefe could I possibly have procured more time CHAP. VIII The manner how to put on the parallels of the Signes Azimuths Almicanters and other varieties upon a seeling Dial. A Seeling Dial is no other then an Horizontal Dial inverted and therefore the variety to be thereon inserted is to be performed by the same Rules as have been before delivered in this Appendix But in respect that the seelings of Rooms are for the most part large those rules will be deficient and some other way must be found for the effecting thereof which way in brief may be this which is general you must by the Tables of Sine and Tangents or by some planisphere compute the Suns Altitude at every hour half and quarter upon these dayes on which the Sun enters the 12 Signes or the diurnal arches and having thus made a Table for your purpose you may fix a string in the place where the Glasse is to lie and let it be extended up to the seeling upon any hour-line and there moved to and fro till a quadrant being applyed to the string the line and plummet hangs directly upon the deg of altitude proper to that hour and there make a mark for that is one point for the parallel of that day you must doe thus for every houre half and quarter so shall you have points enough to draw your parallel by for the Azimuths they may be drawn upon the Floor and tranferred to the seeling by perpendiculars The Almicanters are perfect Circles whose center is that point in the seeling which is directly over the Glasse FINIS COVRTEOVS READER These Books following are to be sold by Tho.
